    New intake for crossfire = more HP!!!!

    Intake is off and I have scraped the gaskets off and cleaned the surface. I will look it over today to see if I missed any crap on there from last night. I checked out my crossfire and it is totally stock no mods done inside. So this will be a good example what a renegade will do on a stock...

    We don't guess on "corvette action center" We produce results, accurately calibrated in near perfectly matching conditions. I am not going to do any guessing. I will produce proper 1/4 mile times. This how we roll at CAC.
